It’s wild how much better Clinton is at speaking than Trump. Also crazy that they’re the same age.

    It’s wild how much better Clinton is at speaking than Trump.

    Is it? One is a Rhode scholar, the other is Donald Jessica Trump. That’s like pointing out how much better at math Einstein is compared to Mr. Ed.

      I guess I just find it jarring. Trump is clearly showing signs of dementia with his constant rambling verbal diarrhea into western media, but most of the time that only makes you think that maybe a lot of 79 year men sound like that, but then you hear someone like Clinton (or Sanders) talk and it brings Trump’s steep decline into clear focus.

      It is wild that Trump is in the position he’s in with the state of his faculties and capabilities.

          Sure, but every time I see a comment like this I find the lack of nuance to be super odd.

          It’s like I have these two apple pies. One of the pies is still an apple pie, but it’s just a bit undercooked. The other one was made with literal human shit instead of apples. They both fucking suck so let’s just mix them together and eat both.

              Your respose is a perfect example of how wrong the left wing response is to this sort of situation. You’ve been handed two pies, one is undercooked, the other literal faeces. The pie being undercooked has nothing to do with the apple tree, and the other pie doesn’t have any apples in it, so your response of ‘burn down the tree that produced the fruit’ addresses neither issue, and cuts off the supply of fresh apples for everyone until your new tree, hopefully, starts to bear fruit sometime in the future.

              If, instead, you’d said something along the lines of “lets teach people how to check their pies are actually cooked, and how to tell the difference between fruit and faeces”, then you’d have been on to something.

                I said what I said, I don’t need the preaching. That’s why people think libs are such twats, fuck off with that pretentious preaching bullshit. I fucking hate both of them and that’s my response to it. Get fucked.

          He certainly can. But there’s no proof he is lying. Until there is, it’s an assumption. At the same time there is a pathological liar president. A man mentioned many more times in the Epstein files, accusing him of raping minors. The focus should be on him. This whole deposition is a distraction and deflection. And it’s blatantly obvious.

            I don’t disagree about the deposition, that is a complete farce and a waste of time to try and distract from Trump explicitly being stated in the files doing horrible things.

      So that’s really easy for trump now. Just release the files showing him he was lying under oath.
